To get evolution 'from bacteria to Bach' requires incredible amounts of new information to be added. Typical bacteria have about 2,000 proteins; a human has about 100,000. At every upward step of evolution there needs to be new information added. Where does it come from? Not from mutations ” they degrade information.
What evidence do you have that shows evolution requires an addition of information, and what evidence do you have to show that (if such addition IS required) the additional information cannot come from somewhere? Define how you use information in this post.
Let's look at a way that we can increase the number of proteins and at the same time increase their variety. Pretend we have a starting protein based on the following genetic sequence (I use numbers because they are closer together and require less typing from my lazy hands
)
123124123123
Makes 20 copies of itself in a new organism =
20 (123124123123)
It screws up: (12
4124123123) It goes and makes 20 copies. We now have something over forty copies of two different things.
Do you see how, with the insanely long strands of genetic code, you can end up with so many different living things.
Next, not ALL mutations are bad! Many are, yes. But those that are beneficial, or "aren't" bad, probably wouldn't be seen by you as mutations.
So, where do you have a problem with what I've said above? Tell me, in your own words, with your own know-how.
I am thirsty and can't breathe right now... damn mutations... so I'm gonna leave you to think of that. You probably have enough on your plate with just what the other (more knowledgable) posters have thrown your way!
